Manchester United narrowly won Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday but Man City’s win over Huddersfield Town 24 hours later meant they are still eight points behind the League leaders.

United travel to Vicarage road to play Watford City later tonight and any result other than a win could end their hopes of putting pressure on Manchester City. The game for tonight has been dubbed as a must win for Jose Mourinho side.

United form in October and November was somewhat poor. However, the Red Devils have been boosted by the return of Paul Pogba, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Marcos Rojo and Marouane Fellaini.

Man United will travel to London to face Arsenal at the Emirates on Sunday and they sure will be exuding so much confidence with the number of players that are fit.
